Story
Sweet little girl, that just needs a forever home. She is currently best friends with my dog, but we already have 5 cats, and this little girl deserves more attention than we are able to give. She is very cuddly, and warms up to anyone quickly. She is very persistent when she wants to cuddle, even if you are working. Which is about her only bad habit. But if you are looking for a friend, this is the little one for you.

Story
Missy was adopted as a kitten from the Chicago area humane society along with her brother, Mister. They travelled to Michigan with me and then to Charlotte, North Carolina. They would like to stay together and are good company for each other. Missy is quiet and affectionate especially with men. Her brother kitty, Mister, is more affectionate with me. Missy is mostly an indoor cat but likes to go outside if conditions are safe. She is a good hunter (although declawed in front paws). Missy is low maintenance and easy going. Please adopt these adorable kitties. I am being transferred to a new job and am likely to be posted overseas in the near future. I will pay adoption fee and provide a supply of food.

Story
Hi, we’ve had Louie for about 7-8 yrs now. He is a sweet and kind tempered boy and very affectionate, loves to snuggle, play and be around you. He isn’t very vocal but will let you know when he is ready to be fed. He is up to date on all of his shots and has been neutered. He is used to getting his nails trimmed and does ok going to the vet. He gets along with just about anyone, however he is a one person cat meaning that he doesn’t do well with other cats or dogs. He also is not comfortable around young children, older children are fine. 👍😀 Unfortunately because we are gone quite a lot traveling we’ve decided that’s it’s not best for us to keep Louie as it’s becoming harder on him each time we go away. He needs someone with a more consistent routine and who doesn’t travel as much. We love Louie but feel that it’s time for him to be a blessing to someone else. Let me know if you have any ?? Blessings :)

Story
Violet is a 4yr old kitty cat with the most personality I have ever seen in a cat. She is a big girl, 20lbs to be exact. Violet is litter trained. As far as personality and temperament, she is overall normal. However, I've noticed violet doesn't take to strangers too well and would fare best in a place with a single owner or perhaps just a couple. I rescued her as a kitten and notice that she can be scared of big dogs, however has spent her whole life with my dog Ziggy (dachshund). The only disclaimer about Violet is she tends to bite of she is scared or sometimes if you prematurely quit petting her, she will "love bite" (bite lightly and hold on, as if to tell me, "No, don't stop.") My absolute favorite thing about Violet and what makes her unique is she is VERY talkative. I have regular conversations with her and she will just meow, meow, meow! I am moving and cannot afford the pet deposit. I love my baby, and she has been with me since her rescue. Please give her a loving home!
